I try to do one longer bike ride every year - preferably one that I can take starting on the bike from my house outside of Boston.
This year I’m going to start out on my bike, and take a train down to DC, go to Pittsburgh (about 400 miles) and then take a train back to NY where my kids live. My wife will pick me up there and we’ll go home.
All the discussions about biking and going low are very helpful to me as I prep for this trip. So thanks @Boerenkool Exercise 1-2 hours after meal - #12 by Boerenkool
My bike friends have told me that I am going the wrong way - I should go Pittsburgh to DC. I’m sure they are right (there is a famous 23 mile hill that I have to climb going this way). But logistics required this route.
I’ll give you a trip report when I’m back - around Sep 16th.
